[OpenLayers-Users] Inconsistent IE6 results that seem to depend on how page is loaded

[palewire]

Thank you for the prompt response, Christopher.

I am loading the KML layer with the following snippet:

kml = new OpenLayers.Layer.GML("Polygons", "/kml/polygons.kml", { 
		format: OpenLayers.Format.KML,
		styleMap: styleMap, 
		formatOptions: { extractAttributes: true }
	});
main_map.addLayer(kml_kml);

And then later on in the code I have a SelectFeature object connected to the
layer.

Is there a better method than Layer.GML? (And not to get too far afield, but
why is it called GML if it's for loading KML and GeoJSON?)
